Composing Hallelujah

Inspirations & Ventilations

Maybe some things are better left unsaid

but if you wanted to test that, I will, yeah, I guess, I could’ve said.

But there were nights in bars that I recall 

your breath was courage laced with alcohol.

You leaned in, you said, 

“make music with the chatter in here,

and whisper all the notes in my ears.”

I didn’t know, I didn’t know the way of my tongue

I didn’t know, I didn’t know what I’d done.
